Using your eSIM in Botswana

Mobile data in Botswana

A tourist landing in Maun faces different preparation than a transfer deep into the Delta. Use data for messages and booking checks where there's a signal, then carry the onward instructions offline.

01 / ARRIVAL & CAMP TRANSFERS

Maun: sort the next leg before you leave arrivals.

If you're arriving in Maun, confirm your onward transfer before you land. If a lodge representative is meeting you at the airport, share your flight details and agree the pickup point in advance. Save the camp name and transfer operator, because a town address may not match your final stop.

If your itinerary includes a flight between camps, pull up your onward booking and confirm the baggage rules with the operator directly. A data connection doesn't replace those instructions, especially for a remote airstrip.

If you're spending a night in Maun first, pin your accommodation entrance and ask the host to confirm the morning pickup point. Download larger map areas on Wi-Fi so they still work once you leave town.

Save before you goFlight and camp confirmations, the transfer contact, pickup instructions and a map of your overnight stop.

02 / SAFARI PREPARATION

Moremi: save the route, then put the phone down.

If you're visiting Moremi Game Reserve, confirm your booked campsite, entry gate and the latest access advice with the operator before you leave. A map pin on its own isn't a route check.

Download the reserve map and store permits and booking references on the device. Agree when you'll next check in with family or your host, since these plans don't promise continuous service in the reserve or across the Delta.

Check our plan's data allowance, validity, activation and local networks before you buy. Save essential maps and bookings offline.
